NOTICES TO CORRESPONDENTS.

Although we have enlarged the present Number to 24 pages instead of 16, and omitted our usual “Notes on Books, &c.” we are compelled to omit as many “Notes, Queries, and Replies” as would occupy at least 24 pages more.  Under these circumstances we have first to ask the indulgence of our Correspondents for such omissions, and secondly, to request them to condense their future communications in to as brief a space as the nature of them will conveniently admit.

Notes and Queries may be procured of any Bookseller or Newsman if previously ordered.  Gentlemen residing in the country who may find a difficulty in procuring it through any bookseller in the neighbourhood, may be supplied regularly with the stamped edition, by giving their orders direct to the publisher, Mr. George Bell, 186.  Fleet Street, accompanied by a Post Office order for a quarter (4s. 4d.); a half year (8s. 8d.), or one year (17s. 4d.).

Notes and Queries may also be procured in Monthly Parts at the end of each month.  Part I., price 1s.; Part II., price 1s, 3d., have been reprinted, and may now be had, together with Part III., price 1s., and Part IV., price 1s.
